Penmanship Poem by Lynne Howard

Penmanship



Staring through glass deep inside her thoughts
Oblivious to snowflakes falling on the window sill
Sitting at a desk quill dipped in ink
Preparing to practice her calligraphy skill
Candle flickering in a draughty room
Letters written from the heart
To express her love and devotion
Before penmanship becomes a dying art

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Lynne, this is so true... Penmanship has/is become a dying art..and those were the good old days when people actually meant it and they really spoke from the heart... This email era creates a great deal of uncertainty. Behind those emails is the person really been genuine? (This is my personal feeling) . Thank you for pointing out such a fine tradition! Its a beautiful poem... All the best.10+++ Premila xx
